Some writers are automatic purchases for me. I mentioned Amanda Quick/Jayne Ann Krentz/Jayne Castle eariler. Another is Lori Foster. She's been an automatic for me since Too Much Temptation (which you really must read if you haven't read it. I have it. It's a keeper.) many, many books ago.
I downloaded When You Dare as soon as it became available and never have I been more thankful for the color capabilities of my Nook than with this cover. It's truly a work of yummy art, right? That chest is perfection.
And as for the book, Foster does again here what I enjoy so much: she makes good heroes. Dare is tough, capable, deadly, and honorable. His tenderness shows in a concern for women, his friendships, and devotion to his dogs. And I'm sure it's the last that pitched me head first into love with Dare. Add to that total hotness and you have romance hero perfection.
I also enjoy Foster's average-girl heroines. Molly seems a little less average than others but is still very much girl-next-door in the face of Dare's over the top abilities. She comes across as a little vulnerable but still capable.
The action's good, and I enjoyed Chris and the dogs. Oh, and the sexual tension is seriously good in this one. I would definitely recommend it.
Also, if you are fan of very fine manly chests, check out the trailer for the book. Two words: hubba hubba.
